day 238 | action + closed video
[After the overwhelming therapy sessions yesterday, Bart knows that he should be more honest about certain things. While running usually doesn't solve his problems, it does give him a clear head - so off to his make-shift tracks he goes! Bart's slowed down his pace considerably compared to normal, so while he's not a red-and-white blur today, he's still faster than most runners. He stops every now and then to take a break, stretch, and slow down if he has to, but he's making rounds in all sectors but Sector 6 today.

When he's not running to his heart's content, Bart's either shopping at the Row (a guy's gotta have his hoodies!) or snagging food from various restaurants around town. Today so isn't a cooking day, even if he'd been enjoying his various experiments.]


[video, filtered to Korra]
Remember when I said I'd tell you if "Time Space Compression" or whatever was really weird? Turns out that really weird was an understatement. [He inhales sharply. While Bart had technically promised Korra he'd ping her about therapy, there's another, more pressing reason he's this nervous.]

Think you can hang out with me today to talk about it? It's a bit too... er, interesting? Yeah, too interesting to talk about over the network.

[video, filtered to Wally]
Since therapy totally sucked yesterday, let's make up for it by having some fun! If you've got stuff to do today, it can be something small. I got board games the other day! [Only a somewhat alternate version of Barry Allen would find sheer joy in owning a knock-off version of Life, which he holds up with a bit of pride.]

Or you know, just grab lunch or something. Anything to get that bad taste outta my mouth, you know?

[Korra would respond to his message saying "Sure," but why bother when she'd be going to see him anyway? ("Because he might not be home " doesn't occur to her. She catches his message early in the afternoon and heads straight for his place.

Knock knock.]

[It's a good thing Bart's actually home then! He answers the door about a minute later, stepping to the side so that she can come in. While he's fully dressed, it's also a bit obvious that he just stepped out of the shower.]

Hey! Didn't think I'd see you so early.

Nope, you're good. I just came back from my daily run. [His much slower than usual daily run. He needed time to think things over!] Want some tea or coffee? I can brew some up in a flash.

Tea, please. [The niceties are nice and all, but onto more important matters!] So what happened at that Time Space Compression thing?

[He nods, heading over to the kitchen to brew some. Since she didn't specify, he's preparing some herbal blend.] It was... less talking and more experimental stuff. I seriously thought I'd walked into Physics 101.

It wasn't bad, just... more hands-on than I thought it'd be.

[Korra sits on the counter and watches him prepare the tea.]

You didn't actually mess with time? Did you?

[Because that sounds WAY more cool than talking about why you think you suck.]

[Seriously, Bart? A board game? You really are his uncle.]

I could go for some lunch.

[Board games are a perfectly enjoyable way to pass the time!! Bart just. Hasn't found anyone that's willing to play them.]

Sounds good. What're you in the mood for?

[Sounds like a game night might need to be arranged.]

Dude, it's me. [He's always in the mood for everything.]

But how about Merlotte's? They have the best burgers in the dome and the service is pretty good to boot.

[They're speedsters. The entire dome is perfect when they're hungry! Bart just likes giving Wally choices that apparently don't involve board games.]

Merlotte's and then maybe the ice cream parlor for dessert? [He bites back his tongue, because "it'll be my treat" doesn't really apply in Marina.] I'll catch you there in a sec.

[Except, this being Bart, he'll probably arrive the latest.]

[Wally just smiles and gives a thumbs-up to confirm their plans before ending the feed and quickly making his way to Merlotte's.]

[And once Wally arrives at the restaurant, he takes a quick look around in an attempt to locate the other speedster and grins when his search comes up empty. It seems like he was finally able to beat Bart in a race. Well, it wasn't an actual race, but he's still going to count it as a victory. He has to take them anyway he can.

Sliding into one of the restaurant's booths, he begins munching on a granola bar he had stashed in his pocket for emergencies while he waits for Bart's immediate arrival.

[About two minutes later, Bart walks in and scans the restaurant. He's got a shopping bag in hand, so it's pretty clear what distracted him from arriving on time!

The second he sees Wally, he'll slide in the seat across from his not!nephew. Bart grins in apology, his gaze falling onto the granola bar in his not!nephew's hand. If he weren't also a speedster, he would've been half-tempted to yell at Wally for ruining his appetite. As it is, however...]


So I guess I shouldn't order triple the amount I was thinking? [He kids. He's still ordering enough for two whole armies, if the place has enough supplies for it.]

[ Guess who likes hoodies as well! This guy right here, so he's out doing his own hoody shopping. He grins a little when he sees Bart doing the same thing. ]

Kind of weird, isn't it? Not paying for anything. I always feel like I'm shoplifting.

Tell me about it. [Bart actually thought he was shoplifting the first time around.] This place kind of encourages everyone's inner kleptomaniac, if you think about it.

[Or maybe just his own, considering he used to have very little problem with fencing people's phones and laptops.] You see any you like?

Which is counterproductive to what they say they want for us. [ Yeah, Peter kind of did too. ]

[ He considers a couple of different hoodies. ] I'm thinking about the blue striped one and the grey and black striped one. I'm amused by the whole stripes and prisoners thing. You?

[info]killerspeed

Considering they arrested me for theft, yeah. It's pretty counterproductive. [If he ends up in a "thieves anonymous" therapy session next time, he knows exactly who to blame.

Bart thoughtfully looks at the ones Peter's talking about, as if this is a matter of life and death.]
Go with the first. It seems to suit you better. [Bart grins, holding up his own red hoodie, with white lightning bolts running along the sleeves. It's light, but it looks comfy too.]

[info]breakspromises

[ No worries, Peter won't tell. They didn't get him for theft, but they got him for a lot of other things that were reasonably petty like inciting graffiti. He nods and folds the hoodie up then grins at Bart's hoodie. ]

Okay, that one is awesome.

[Honestly, Bart would've preferred the graffiti! It sounded cooler than "stealing a priceless Russian manuscript just because he could."]

Isn't it? I almost had something like it at home. [But it was also his superhero costume.] I bet if we dig around a little, we'll find that perfect Parker hoddie for sure.

[She notices the fast running man before paying close consideration.] Hey, Wally! [Not that you aren't appreciated too, Bart. You're just not the guy she's been kind of, maybe, sort of kissing, so you aren't first on her mind of fast men.]

Huh?

[Bart screeches to a halt, flailing as he catches himself from tripping into the nearest tree or light post.] Hey, Artemis. You looking for Wally or something? [Because clearly, that's the only reason she'd even think of confusing the two.]

Oh, Bart. Hi. No, I just thought you were him. You must have been going pretty slow. [Yes, a jab at Wally. It feels better now. Not embarrassing that she was happily calling out for him.]

[He opens his mouth to agree, because yeah, he was going at cruise control today, but... he should also probably be a good uncle and defend his nephew's honor.] While I'm flattered, he's not that slow.

Kid can still give me a run for my money. ["If I'm going at cruise control."]

Whatever you say. [Actually she believes it. Maybe not in the purest speed sense, but she believes in Wally. What he might lack in "going really fast" he makes up in other ways. Watch how she doesn't say these things right now.]

What are you up to?

2013-10-16 11:52 pm UTC (link)
[No other biting quip? Artemis doesn't sound like she's on her A-game today. Bart's not sure if he wants to question why.] I'm sure he'll turn up soon enough - or if not, y'all do live together. There's always the old-fashioned love note trick.

Besides hanging out with you, not much. I figure I could grab a couple of runs in, snag some food, ["ask my crush on a date"]... pretty typical stuff.
